We consider a flavour conserving two Higgs doublet model that consists of a type I (or X) quark sector and a generalized lepton sector where the Yukawa couplings of the charged leptons to the new scalars are not proportional to the lepton…
A two Higgs doublet model with special Yukawa interactions for the top quark and a softly broken discrete symmetry in the Higgs potential is proposed. In this model, the top quark is much heavier than the other quarks and leptons because it…

We study the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model with the aligned Yukawa sector (A2HDM) in light of the observed excess measured in the muon anomalous magnetic moment. We take into account the existing theoretical and experimental constraints with…
We analyse light Higgs scalar and pseudoscalar associated hadro-production in the 2-Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) Type-X (or lepton-specific) within the parameter space allowed by theoretical self-consistency requirements as well as the latest…
The recent discovery of the bottom quark Yukawa coupling ($hbb$) of the 125 GeV scalar motivates one to search for extra bottom Yukawa coupling that may exist in the nature. The two Higgs doublet model without a discrete $Z_2$ symmetry…
We implement a comprehensive and detailed study of the alignment of Yukawa couplings in the so-called Higgs basis taking the framework of general two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs). We clarify the model input parameters and derive the Yukawa…
The broken phase of the Next-to two-Higgs-doublet model (N2HDM) constitutes an archetype of extended Higgs sectors. In the presence of a softly-broken $\mathrm{Z}_2$ symmetry throughout the scalar and Yukawa sectors, as the additional gauge…
In the lepton-specific version of two Higgs doublet models, a discrete symmetry is used to couple one Higgs, $\Phi_2$, to quarks and the other, $\Phi_1$, to leptons. The symmetry eliminates tree level flavor changing neutral currents…
We study the discovery potential for doubly charged Higgs bosons, Delta^--, in the process e- gamma -> e+ mu- mu- for centre of mass energies appropriate to high energy e^+e^- linear colliders and the CLIC proposal. For M_Delta < sqrt{s}_{e…
A discrete symmetry between quarks and (generalized) leptons can exist in nature, and its spontaneous symmetry breaking scale can be as low as a few TeV. Such a discrete symmetry also has interesting implications for how electroweak…
I review new developments in Higgs physics, with a focus on Yukawa couplings in and beyond the standard model. In particular, I discuss different methods of measuring the light Yukawas, new sources of CP violation in the Higgs sector, and…
We consider constraints from flavor physics on two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDM) with general, flavor-diagonal, Yukawa couplings. Analyzing the charged Higgs contribution to different observables, we find that $b\to s\gamma$ transitions and…
We perform a numerical analysis of Higgs-to-Higgs decays within a Type II 2-Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM), highlighting several channels that cannot occur in its Supersymmetric version, thereby allowing one to possibly distinguish between…
We present the first complete two-loop calculation of the electric and chromo-electric dipole moments of the light quarks and the gluon, as well as contributions to CP-violating lepton-quark interactions, in the unconstrained two-Higgs…
Baryogenesis requires large CPV phases, while said phases are constrained by electric dipole moment (EDM) experiments. In the general two Higgs doublet model (g2HDM), without $Z_{2}$ symmetry, EWBG can be achieved while evading EDM bounds.…

The complex two-Higgs doublet model (C2HDM) is one of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model with a source of CP-violation in the scalar sector. It has a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry, softly broken by a complex coefficient. There are four…
We present a search for new particles in an extension to the standard model that includes a heavy Higgs boson ($H^0$), a lighter charged Higgs boson ($H^\pm$), and an even-lighter Higgs boson $h^0$, with decays leading to a $W$-boson pair…
Within the framework of the two-Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM), we attempt to find some discrete, non-abelian flavour symmetry which could provide an explanation for the masses and mixing matrix elements of leptons. Unlike the Standard Model,…
